Tech's new sportsmanship campaign

GTU has created a new sportsmanship initiative program called the Yellow Gold Standard. If there's one thing Tech is synonymous with, it would be sportsmanship and fair play...fan support... the smell of curry.
The Gold Standard's mission statement suggests raising awareness of sportsmanship at all Tech athletic events, "by increasing positive Yellow Jacket support; creating a sense of pride in Georgia Tech venues; events and traditions; promotion appreciation for the spirit of competition and providing a safe, healthy and respectful game day environment for all."
Newsflash! Tech Cheats Again!

Fans who sign the Gold Standard Pledge will have their name shown on the MegaJacketTron at the next home game. [ed. "MegaJacketTron"? Seriously? Stuff like this is why the rest of the planet mocks you] It appears from the Yellow Gold Standard web site that anyone can sign the pledge. For instance, just this morning "Jasper Was Down" signed the pledge, and shared some stories of bad sportsmanship in 1999. "Heywood Jablowme" signed right after Jasper. Perhaps you know some other people who would like to sign the pledge, and share a story about Tech fans?
